title: GitPython and New Git Tutorials slug: gitpython-git-tutorials meta: Learn about the awesome GitPython project and take a look at a slew of great Git tutorials. category: post date: 2017-12-11 modified: 2017-12-11 newsletter: True headerimage: /img/visuals/email-post-header.jpg headeralt: Python programming language and Full Stack Python logos.

First Steps with GitPython is a quick tutorial that shows how to get started using the awesome GitPython library for programmatically interacting with Git repositories in your Python applications. In the spirit of the thank you maintainers issue ticket I wrote about last newsletter, I opened a quick "non-issue" ticket for the GitPython developers to thank them. Give them a thank you +1 if you've used the project and also found it useful.

The Git page on Full Stack Python has also just been updated with new resources. A few of my favorite new tutorials list on the Git page are:

• Flight rules for Git
• Git back to the future
• Shadows Of The Past: Analysis Of Git Repositories
• The anatomy of a Git commit

I also split out the Git page resources into beginner, more advanced, specific use case and workflow sections so it's easier to parse based on whether you're a Git veteran or still up-and-coming in that area of your development skills.
